  1. TPC DoW

    in TE OWF Archive

    Posted · Edited by bibliophile

    I bought and SDI for the first time in a few rounds. So far it has blocked [s]3[/s] 11 and 2 have gotten though in [s]2[/s] 3 days

    I can't say about my own launches since my opponents have deleted the messages but I recall that some got through the first time and others took as many as 3 or 4 tries.

    Edit; updated 8 more blocks today: 5 from 1, 2 from another 1 from a third

    This was a great war! I haven't had this much fun in TE for a long time. The Warriors are worthy opponents who acquitted themselves well on the field of battle

    A special shout out to polarbear. I often thought he was beat down but he kept launching GAs and usually won them when I thought he couldn't, much to my distress. :blush: He is the epitome of what makes the Warriors a great alliance.

    o/ polarbear
    o/ Warriors
    o/ TPC

    Ok, you've convinced me. CN:TE is coming back. I'll post updates on the TE forums and in CN:SE on a specific date of return. (Probably over the coming weekend)

    Two words: AWE SOME

  4. Clarification Request

    Please don't take away my TE. I am [i]far[/i] more involved with it than SE. I'm in the top 5% there, but only check in for a minute every day to pay bills, do tech deals, etc. Otherwise I don't have much to do there, whereas TE always involved multiple daily checks, ongoing activity and so on. And that only increased when there was war in TE

    In sum: I'm bored <_<

    Please bring back TE soon

    what I'd like to see is 2 alliances blitz each other the same night, has that ever happened to anyone's knowledge? That'd be epic. :awesome:
    [/quote]

    I have a vague recollection of being involved in just that some rounds ago, but the specifics escape me now

    Kill 3x more enemy troops, lose battle. :(( Battle system :((
    [/quote]

    I agree, it's a weird result when you did kill more troops and soldiers. Perhaps it has something to do with the relative losses as a percentage of total military?

    Still, you did get some land and tech and destroy infra despite leaving some cash behind. I'm not sure that qualifies as a defeat despite what the message says.

    Props to you BR!

  9. A Joint OP/LE Announcement

    The Dutch say:

    [color=green]Wanneer Pasen en Pinksteren op één dag vallen
    When Easter and Whitsun fall on the same day [/color]

    (whatever that means)
    [/quote]

    Whitsun (= Whit[e] Sunday) is also known as Pentecost, and by definition occurs 7 weeks after Easter. Having the two occur on the same day is an impossibility, hence the idiom.

    We now return you to the regularly scheduled war. :war:

    Ok.. I've tossed on a bacon wrapped cheese filled beer brat for you:)

    MMM, sounds good.

    Got another for me?

    Apologies for what may be a stupid question, but how do I see what the new coordinates are when I try to move one of my facilities [i]before[/i] I click to make the actual move and spend the money? Or is it just hit and miss based on approximating the posted screen shots?

    Thanks in advance

    EDIT: Never mind, I found the answer earlier in the thread (post #59). It worked like a charm!

    It's true. He asked me & I said I would when it lets me. I was already planning on it, though.
    Confusion.
    [/quote]

    I also got his request to remove the Sanctions he imposed.

    So perhaps a race among the Black Team senators as to who can do it first? :ehm:

    Welcome back, Cobras.
    Sure, use nukes if you must, but please keep bibs from hitting people with his cane?

    I thought GR "needed a challenge"? Now they need backup, despite their original nearly 4:1 nuke advantage?
    [/quote]

    More like 10:1 at the initial DoW, and pretty much the same now. Except if you add in the IRON [s]backup[/s] dogpile it is now 12:1 (110 to 9 nukes).

    Spin those [b][i]facts[/i][/b] however you like.

    I'm having trouble figuring out who are the bigger scum, GR for bringing in others when they already out-nuke us 10 to 1 and most of us are in nuke anarchy or IRON for agreeing to such low dogpiling

    Probably equal ignominy to go around
